Besides the sweetness they add some texture and thickness to the smoothie. I don’t like my smoothies really thick, but if you do you can just add a little less almond milk to this recipe.  I use a Vitamix blender for all my smoothies and it is very high powered.  You can use a different blender, but you might have to blend a little longer to get rid of the chunks.
